Wireless, Cassette-Sized Flat Panel Detector Designed for Digital Radiography

It provides a 15-million-pixel image matrix, a 100-μm pixel pitch,automatic exposure detection (AED), and a directly deposited CsI scintillator for a clearer image and protection for the environment.

The detector makes a streamlined transition from film to digital, and provides a lower radiation dose. Upgrading to digital radiography (DR) is as easy as changing an X-ray cassette with a new wireless flat panel detector. The system fits directly into a traditional table or wall-stand bucky similar to a film screen cassette. The wireless DR panel offers a built-in WiFi source, and can store up to 40 images.

The DR system was developed by Perkin Elmer (Waltham, MA, USA). The system offers true 35 cm x 43 cm-imaging area per ISO 4090 cassette standard, and it is powered with a removable rechargeable battery. Single-piece carbon-fiber construction for the front and back housing allows for simple positioning and cleaning.
